Extensive translation of small Open Reading Frames revealed by Poly-Ribo-Seq
Thousands of small Open Reading Frames (smORFs) with the potential to encode small peptides of fewer than 100 amino acids exist in our genomes. However, the number of smORFs actually translated, and their molecular and functional roles are still unclear. In this study, we present a genome-wide assessment of smORF translation by ribosomal profiling of polysomal fractions in Drosophila. We detect...
متن کاملUpstream open reading frames as regulators of mRNA translation.
Continuing discoveries of new and surprising mechanisms of gene regulation suggest that our understanding of this complex and ubiquitous biological process remains incomplete. Emerging examples illustrate that many and perhaps all genes are regulated at multiple steps including transcription, posttranscriptional processing, nuclear export and localization, stability, and translation of mature m...
متن کاملAnalysis of small human proteins reveals the translation of upstream open reading frames of mRNAs.
To find novel short coding sequences from accumulated full-length cDNA sequences, proteomic analysis of small proteins expressed in human leukemia K562 cells was performed using high-resolution nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Our analysis led to the identification of 54 proteins not more than 100 amino acids in length, including four...
متن کاملHow to Deal with Small Open Reading Frames?
Current ’classical’ algorithms recognizing protein coding sequences do not work effectively with sequences of small length. To deal with this problem we have proposed some improvements of the existing gene finders without any assumed arbitrary threshold. Introduced parameters describe position of tested sequences in the ranking of all small Open Reading Frames and short protein coding genes fou...
متن کاملSmall open reading frames: current prediction techniques and future prospect.
Evidence is accumulating that small open reading frames (sORF, <100 codons) play key roles in many important biological processes. Yet, they are generally ignored in gene annotation despite they are far more abundant than the genes with more than 100 codons. Here, we demonstrate that popular homolog search and codon-index techniques perform poorly for small genes relative to that for larger gen...
